India In Itself
The large population of India is 1,155,347,678. That is a whole lot of people! Even though India has a lot of people that massive country still has a lot of poverty. Poverty is in every country but, India has close to the most. The Reasons why India has poverty is because of when the British had rule over India and a whole of Asia. Another reason is the way that India's Economic Policies. The people in India are blaming Liberalizations Policies for one of their biggest ways of making money in that countries drop drastically.
Current Situation: India is a source, destination, and transit country for men, women, and children trafficked for the purposes of forced labor and commercial sexual exploitation. India's largest trafficking problem is men, women, and children are held in debt bondage and are charged labor like: working in brick kilns, rice mills, agriculture, and embroidery factories. Women and girls are trafficked within the country for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation and forced marriage; children are subjected to forced labor as factory workers, domestic servants, beggars, and agriculture workers, and have been used as armed combatants by some terrorist and insurgent groups.
Government authorities have made uneven efforts to prosecute traffickers and protect trafficking victims. Government authorities continued to save victims of sexual exploitation and forced child labor and child armed combatants, and began to show progress in law enforcement against these forms of trafficking.

The slums of India symbolize urban poverty. They create dangerous conditions that compound the poverty which forced them to set up home there. The lack of safe water in Mumbai, families is still forced to buy it even though it is unsafe for them and their children. With the lack of sanitation, waste, disposal, or drainage facilities, open sewer are filled with garbage and human feces. With weak ownerships of the land, the shanty people could be vulnerable to weather, crime, and fire. People who live in the slums get unfair choices from the Government. So they do not get the same benefits as the rich people in India.
The Indian films were followed throughout South Asia. When their popularity gained medium attention they would make 1,000 films annually in different languages and cultures. Now in the 20th century Indian film has become a World Enterprise just like the Chinese and American film productions.
Bollywood is one of the most popular parts of the Indian Cinema. It is based in Mumbai. Bollywood is also the largest film producer in all of India. Raja Harishchandra by Dadasaheb Phalke was the first Silent Movie of Bollywood. It was mad in 1913. After a lot more movies it took off. Some of the influences for Bollywood were some of the Indian Epics. The Ancient Sanskrit Drama was a very big part of Bollywood’s influence. The Theatre production in India, in my mind was the biggest influence for any film production. The Parsi Theatre which in their plays the blended fantasy, realism, sing, and dance all in to one. Hollywood which is America’s biggest Movie making industry in America. Western Musical Industry which is mostly on MTV which has given them influence since the early 1990’s.
India is a very diverse country and is growing. Some for the worst and some for the best. I hope that things will get better there for the poor people in India.

Tier Rating: Tier 2 Watch List, India is on the Tier 2 Watch List for a fifth consecutive year for its failure to provide evidence of increasing efforts to combat human trafficking in 2007.
